Great (potential) news.  Not being a wise guy, but what's "biological life?"  Is there some kind of technical differentiation of which I'm not aware?  Is it some kind of translation glitch from the Italian?

In context?

Bacteria.

Oh, and the beach won't be great for tanning, since the "lake" is underground.
